• When charging for the first time or when the shaver is not used for a few
months, leave the shaver to charge continuously for 4 hours.
• The charging light (5) shows that the appliance is being charged. When the
battery is fully charged, the charging light turns off. Intermittent blinking
after a while indicates that the battery maintains its full capacity. This can
also happen short term when charging after the battery was completely
discharged.
• A full charge provides 30 minutes of cordless shaving time depending on
your beard growth.
• Once the shaver is completely charged, discharge the shaver through
normal use. Then recharge to full capacity. Subsequent charges will take
about 1 hour.
• Maximum battery capacity will only be reached after several charging/
discharging cycles.
• 5-minute quick charge is sufficient for a shave.
Shaving
First, remove the adjustable comb (7): Using your thumbs, press against the
side clips of the adjustable comb so that they swing off in the direction of the
arrows (a). Activate the on/off switch (6). The floating foil frame automatically
adapts to your skin surface for a close, smooth shave.
For best results:
• Always shave before washing your face.
• At all times, hold the shaver at right angles (90°) to the skin (b).
• Stretch the skin and shave against the direction of beard growth.
• For pre-shaving after a few days of not having shaved, use the wide
trimmer (4a) to pre-cut long hairs. For a close, smooth shave, finish with
the foil.
• To maintain 100% shaving performance, replace your foil and cutter block
at least every 18 months or when worn.

shaping sideburns, moustaches and partial short beards. The wide trimmer
is provided with safety rips and a gliding strip for less irritation and easy
gliding. Press the blue stripes to push up the twistable trimmer (4). While
